Manchester United starlet, Zidane Iqbal has sent a message to new manager, Erik ten Hag after his eye-catching cameo against Liverpool in pre-season.

Iqbal replaced Scott McTominay for the second half in Bangkok.

Ten Hag’s side went on to win 4-0. Facundo Pellistri netted the final goal, after first-half strikes from Jadon Sancho, Fred and Anthony Martial.

Speaking to United’s official website, Iqbal thanked Ten Hag for the opportunity given to him.

He said: “Playing a very strong Liverpool team and obviously coming away with the win, I’d just like to thank the manager for putting his trust in me and Sav, you know?

“[I’m] feeling excited, first tour. Honestly, it’s been boiling, the sweat, but it’s only going to help us with the season, just adapting to the last four days in Bangkok has been tough and obviously we’re now going to Australia.

“Nine hours’ [time] difference between there and England, I think, so it’s going to be tough but exciting times and we look forward to it.”
